Happy Mother's Day!

At One Mango Tree, work and mothering are often one and the same. Alice does her best to care for the smallest kiddos, but moms will pop in and out of the workshop to feed their babies and give them some love and attention. Just like moms the world over, the One Mango Tree tailors put their children first, doing everything they can to keep food on the table and school fees paid.

Here are some of my personal favorite Fair Trade Valentine's Day gift ideas:

I tried this AMAZING chocolate at Green Festival this past fall, and I'm hooked. Fairly traded and $4.25 a bar, I STRONGLY urge you to just spend $45 and get the 12-pack. It's the perfect mix of salty sweet goodness.

Winter Sale!

It's cold outside, and depending on which part of the US you live in, the snow is really coming down. I don't know about you, but my favorite thing to do in that kind of weather is to make some {fair trade} coffee and snuggle up with my laptop, watching the flakes fall out the window.Here at One Mango Tree, we're already thinking about spring, so it's a perfect time to offer all of you laptop/coffee/snuggler friends out there some great deals on One Mango Tree merchandise. We've pretty much marked down our whole product line - at least 30% off! It's a first for our 100% organic apparel collection. Our stock is getting pretty low, so make sure you snag your favorites before they're gone! Check out some of the great deals below:

Cap-Sleeve Jacket
{was $38, on sale $26.60}

Perfectly styled for winter when layered with a tissue turtleneck and a chunky scarf (have you seen our friends' ShopMayu's beautiful fair trade collection from Peru?). Best part is you can still wear it when the weather warms up, layered over a soft, gauzy tank, it's perfect for the office and casual enough to sport with jeans too!






Old Barn Handloomed Scarf
{was $26, on sale $18.20}

Our favorite! These gorgeous, 100% cotton hand-loomed scarves are the product of a partnership with Wawoto Kacel, a weaving cooperative in Northern Uganda. All of the colors are hand-dyed {and beautiful}, and since the scarves are light-weight cotton, you'll be able to keep on sporting them right into the spring!






The Betty Clutch
{was $26, on sale $18.20}

You better hurry to snag one of these! The Betty Clutch is hand-woven from dried banana leaves, and it became a fast favorite this season - we only have a few left, and at this price, they are bound to disappear. Also made by weavers at Wawoto Kacel, we're really proud of the eco-friendliness of this piece - the banana leaves are gathered at our artisans' home gardens - a no impact fashion statement!





Stay warm and happy shopping!
